About Madison's Clifts Cove

Clifts Cove Madison Alabama 35758 Market report, October-December2011

Living in Madison Alabama there is no doubt that you've heard of or driven through Clifts Cove. Located centrally in Madison on Hughes Rd. Clifts Cove is Luxury living at its best in one of the areas most popular school districts, Bob Jones High, Discovery Middle and Rainbow Elementary schools. At a time of the year that will soon wake up to the spring market season, sales of higher end homes are actually improving. At the time this market report was published an additional home, just shy of one million dollars went pending making that a total of four. This is important because a pending sale is essentially the same as a sold property, that is, all contingencies have been met or removed and the principals are simply waiting to close thus improving the sales stats not reflected in the graphs. Also that a million dollar home sold in the dead of winter shows that even high end buyers are out there looking. As mentioned in other Huntsville and Madison Alabama market reports, much of the credit for the good housing market in the Northern Alabama area, particularly Huntsville and Madison Alabama is in some part supported by the high tech jobs offered by NASA, Redstone Arsenal and many of NASA's sub-contractors, such as Boeing, Intergraph, Brown Teledyne, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and many other high profile, high tech companies that provide a strong economic base to the area.

I believe that because of the stronger market conditions that exist here and because of the seemingly improved economy in many areas around the nation our market is turning a corner and opening up increased housing demand. With jobs at the center of an up tic in housing, Madison Alabama's lower unemployment rate of just over 7% compared to the national average of around 8.5% is an indication that Madison Alabama is a little ahead of the curve.

Luxury Home Subdivision, Clifts Cove, Madison Alabama, 35758

I doubt that Madison Alabama's first resident, John Cartwright, who first settled here back in 1818 would have thought in his wildest imagination that Madison Alabama would grow to what it is today, a thriving town of over 43,000 people, many of whom are engineers working in some way with the space program.

Huntsville and Madison Alabama were quiet and relatively unknown little towns back in the '50's and early '60's. Then Wernher von Braun and his German scientist's were assembled here together by NASA and life for Madison and Huntsville changed forever. NASA and the high tech companies attracted to our area continue to support our economic base and we are also very proud to be home to Space Camp.

Clifts Cove Subdivision Madison Al

If you are in the Huntsville Alabama Housing Market, buying or selling in the upper-end price ranges, then Clifts Cove is not only a market example to look at, it is also a must see neighborhood that should not only be explored online, but also visited personally to be fully appreciated!

Literally located on the Southwest side of Rainbow Mountain within the Madison city limits, the neighborhood’s entrance is only 1 1/2 blocks from award-wining Bob Jones High School. To beat that, its not really a sidewalk that links the subdivision’s Hughes Road entrance to the High School, its a double-wide asphalt jogging trail that even I have been down a few times personally.

While average home prices within Clifts Cove have moderated, down ~6% over the last 4 years a few more-recent fire-sale foreclosures are the primary reason for the decline. Naturally homes of this caliber do generally take longer to sell than an average priced home and the days-on-market average for 2010 was 139 days.

The timing is perfect when it comes to considering Clifts Cove Subdivision, the neighborhood is mature with only a few remaining lots available for building. In fact on my drive through the neighborhood today, I noticed a couple of the lots were ‘For Sale by Owner’ and not tied to any particular custom builder. So if negotiations with an existing homeowner doesn’t work out, building is still an option.
